Teräslinnut [English translation]

Maybe one person won't save the world

But some think it's good like this

And why do the hippies get blamed when someone drives over them with a beamer

And I doubt babies are already angry and I doubt there's anger without yesterday

And who recognizes her/himself anymore without peeking in the mirror

Organic or not that's what they're arguing about

Someone skips a long queue and thinks that this won't be enough for everyone

This is what the world we were born in is like

Birds of steel fly and ice melts

And beautiful glances change into ice-cold eyes

And the change is in what you do, not in what you see

I believe in "everything with moderation" 1

Whether you're fleshy or not

Cigs come from the ground, end up back on the ground, but inbetween it destroyed a body

Many are afraid to look straight at things, head turns easily

Many get frustrated and are scared even though they wonder that good things should be done

People kill for something so they'd get into heaven

But getting into heaven doesn't depend on whether you wear a robe or a cross or whether you believe in transmigration

This is what the world we were born in is like

Birds of steel fly and ice melts

And beautiful glances change into ice-cold eyes

And the change is in what you do, not in what you see

This can change

This can change

This can change

And I believe that it will be dry after the storm

And I hope that love finally pushes the greed away

And this is what the world we were born in is like

And birds of steel fly even if you wouldn't rise up along

And wretched glances change into happy eyes

Don't keep on thinking no one does anything here

This can change.
